@pmbrandvold@techtoots.com I got a drill pump - less than twenty bucks, you get an old drill and hook it up (or anything else that spins about that fast) and it fills up a 3gal container for me in about one minute I'd say. For us, it pumps water out of the barrel (I actually mostly send RO water out to it from our filter system, have not yet gotten the gumption to divert the nearby downspout yet, and feeding our plants nothing but our well water murders them over the season) into containers, to which I can add nutrients and whatnot if need be, or just straight into the watering can. If you're rigging up some sort of autofeed system, the need to press the drill's trigger will make that a nonstarter, but if you just need a way to pump the water out cheaply, drill pumps are the shit.
